No smoke alarms No CO detector No air in bathrooms Mold under sinks Bedroom closets full of stuff Doors need to be able to open shut easily Kitchen drawers mostly broken off track Return air vent filthy Bathtubs floors need mats slippery Walk in shower needs handicap railing Care taker walks around and kinda weird 1/4 bottles of soap and 1 ply tp Owners super nice but they need a handyman to fix place up and make more presentable and worth the cost they charge and advertise

We absolutely enjoyed our time here. The town was amazing! It provides great food at Martindale River Cafe, live music, and friendly community members. We loved the back porch on this property and private section of the river. The groundskeeper made sure we were safe, and the owners were so nice. Don’t skip on this one! It was perfect!

Blown away by the hospitality and cuteness of this property. Just a minute walk to wonderful food, live music, and access to the San Marcos River. We had a wonderful time here, and most certainly will be back.

Pleasant neighborhood and landlady. The home was perfect for our stay. The lake view is now very limited from the home due to growth of the beautiful trees, but easily accessible. It was so quiet I thought I could hear a pin drop. Birds begin the day by singing, so you can sit on the porch and listen to them and the river. Main Street has a couple of businesses, and is also quiet. We really enjoyed our stay!

Talked to property owner about house not being clean/dead bugs and the smell. Had to go get a hotel. Talked to somebody at VRBO and they said I would be getting a refund.

Owners extremely nice

Beautiful and tranquil views in the back, nice patio to eat or just watch the birds. Location was great to explore the area, centrally located and easy access to freeways.

We really enjoyed the house and it's location. We came to BBQ taste, hike and kayak. We were only a few miles to all the Lockhart BBQ places. We were also only a few miles from Lockhart State Park and the Purgartory hiking trails. Also close to a number of breweries. We loved that we could walk 3 houses down the block to the downtown and had live music on Friday and Saturday nights. We loved sitting on the porch and being able to see the river. The water was still a little too cold for us to get in but was great to be able to just walk downhill to it. Wished we had brought our fishing stuff. The house had everything we needed, and we were quite comfortable.

This property has a great spot on the river. We enjoyed swimming and fishing right behind the house. Martindale is a super cute town that is an easy walk from the house. The stores were closed on our M/Tu visit, but would be a fun spot to wander on the weekend.

We enjoyed the peace and quiet at this location. Every evening & morning during our stay we would relax on the back porch while listening to the sound of the river and birds. We can't wait to visit again.

Mary was very nice and the house was clean and comfortable...

We had an incredible time at the house and Mary was a great host. The river was beautiful and a great place to hang around all day. Tubes were provided which made it easier to relax on the cool water. Just down the street, walking distance from where we stayed, they have a coffee bar and breakfast spot that was delicious. We’ve never encountered a host as sweet, compassionate, understanding, and kind as Mary. Even when we made a mistake and slightly damaged part of the property she always stayed kind. We will definitely be back not just for the incredible home but to visit Mrs. Mary.

This lovely home is located right on the river with a great deck the full length of the house. It was a great place for morning coffee enjoying the quiet surroundings! The host was extremely helpful with suggestions for restaurants nearby. The kitchen was fully furnished as well. The. beds were very comfy and the walk-in shower was perfect. In the evenings we gathered around the large dining table to play games which were stored in the home plus a collection of various genres of interesting books! This home has it all! We couldn’t have enjoyed it more!

Great place to stay with family. Lively place near the city. House is clean and friendly, kids love spending time outside, good internet and TV subscriptions. River is accessible for relaxing, swimming, saw people kayaking. Owners were very friendly and reachable. Highly recommend for family vacations.

We enjoyed the back porch and the river it just happened to be the 200b mile canoe race going on and passed right by us short distance to San Marcus and the house was well furnished and the ground keeper kept us updated on what was happening around town and the history of some of martinsville all nice and relaxing

The owner confirmed there was a BBQ on the property so we brought meat dinners for our 2 night stay. The BBQ grates were so old and rusty I would not put food on it. Plus, there was no propane tank. I asked the maintenance guy about a tank and he said he would find me one and I can bring it down the road and fill it up for $20. 1 of the large electric stove top burners does not work and the oven was filthy. No pillows in 1 of the bedrooms other then a couple of decorative larger throw pillows which I did not know if the covers were washed. The long bulb light in the kitchen does work (if you get lucky) if you stand on a chair and move the bulb tubes around. No cover on the 3 ft. Light light fixture so the bulbs are easy to get to. We have been at many VRBO homes and always provided 4-5 star reviews. This homes obvious flaws tell me either the owners feel the home is sufficient which it is not, or it is just being neglected.

Great experience and plenty of room. Enjoyed the porch and river. !

This is a great spot to get away from everything. This place is super clean, has all the amenities you'd want, and comes with a private fishing spot on the river (this perk CANNOT be understated). I highly recommend a stay here and can assure you, that you won't regret it.

Another great stay at this property. Loved everything about it. We’ll be back again, for sure!

Owners were very accommodating. View of the river was amazing. Second bedroom has a full sized bed, not a queen. Decor was lovely.

This charming home has been perfectly outfitted as a VRBO. Along with all the basics, the owners have provided things like books, puzzles, games, hand sanitizer, inner tubes for floating, and the list goes on. The house is nestled in a very peaceful setting with an abundance of trees and amazing view of the river. There is a small private road that runs near the edge of the property, but it was seldom used during our weeklong stay.
